When air temps are above 90. a scoop of ice cream placed on the head of a windsurfer can provide a number of beneficent effects:
-the cooling and refreshing effects encourage precise rigging of the sail you were going to junk rig,
-the stigma of falling off your board in light summer winds is mitigated by the prospect of relief from the milky sugar drip into your eyes,
-it provides a humorous reminder of what falling in winter waters was like, and will be again.
The original Ice Cream Test was used to emphasize the fact that lesser windsurfers (such as myself) do not need napkins with our mid-session lunch. The falls take care of everything.
